"What did you say to F about the plugs?" asked my wife.
F is our 4 year old daughter.
"Eh? Oh, she was playing with her hairdryer last night trying to plug it in," I replied. "I was worried she'd stick her fingers in the socket so I told her not to play with the plugs because electricity can be dangerous. Why, what happened?"
"She was very worried this afternoon. She picked up the nightlight in her room and saw it had prongs on the back. She dropped it and kept asking me when she was going to be dead."
"Maybe I overdid it on the warnings."

That's pretty cute.
I don't think my parent ever actually told me NOT to do that (not that I ever did, obviously)- I guess I picked it up somewhere between the safety warnings on the appliances and the horror movie where the killer has a "human" garden in the bottom of the lake and almost gets fried in a bathtub.
Don't think I know that movie, can you remember what it was called?
